Another Day, Another Phone Claiming to be the Galaxy SIII

Well, what do you guys think? This picture is floating all over the interwebs today as the latest Galaxy SIII “leak.” It certainly looks fake. The top Samsung logo and edge of screen seem to be bleeding together in one bad Photoshop job. And why would anyone make the clock orange, but leave the rest of the notification bar icons ICS blue? What’s with the elongated home button? Doesn’t it really just look like a Galaxy SII variant that has been smeared to appear slightly different? Another valiant effort, I guess.

If you want a powerful phone with amazing specs and gorgeous screen, wait for the GSIII.

If you want all that AND sexy, get the HTC One X.

Simple.

LOL fail photoshop. look at the blue line that goes across the top under app and widget text. Notice how on the left its closet to the top than the right? the person couldnt even angle the image.

So much info on the Galaxy SIII but no news on the Droid Fighter which was to come out before the S3.

Button kinda looks like it came off of the Galaxy SII HD.

nope.. Apple is not a saint.. but in general.. their products are a infinitely more polished than what others churn out. Google had the opportunity to do what you are saying with their Nexus devices.. but the quality of GNex is laughable.. and not to mention how they botched up the launch in their very own backyard and ended up releasing their flagship product in a foreign country first.

slow news day?? lol

The corners are not even. The speaker is shifted down and to the right. Fake. Fake. Fake.

I’d hardly call this a valiant effort.. more like a half ass effort..

quarter ass at best….

If this is the GS3, I am glad I’ll be picking up the One X in 2 weeks.

The lines aren’t even parallel between the UI and body case. Why would you bother posting this crap and wasting our time?

Butters619

Hahahaha! I didn’t even notice that until you pointed it out.

Forget parallel, the lines aren’t even straight. I like the black hump that touches the bottom of Samsung.

Its not the UI that isn’t lined up with the case it is the Pixels. When the maker of the pic Pixelated the icons the pixels were perfectly upright however the phone is tilted slightly so it gives the illusion that the icons don’t match up to the case when in fact they might (not saying they do just).

I still think its fake though.

Butters619

Look at the black square that represents the ‘screen’. That isn’t parallel to the case edge.

MyStillRemains

You quite literally took the words out of my mouth. A lot of tech sites have been posting this even though its clearly a fake. Why would they even consider posting this?

If this is the real deal….next!

Assuming the picture is real, once again Android and the companies that churn out android, fail to follow simple ergonomics in their design. This phone is probably super sized…(judging by the 5 column app layout), and yet look at where the soft menu button is! top right corner… so you’ll have absolutely no chance of working this phone with one hand.

This is where Apple wins hands down.. attention to detail.. They even thought about putting the camera app icon (by default).. on the top right of the screen.. so that when you use the camera button (volume+ button).. you can easily open the camera app by touching with your thumb conveniently..

This is the primary difference between Google and Apple. One is about churning out something as fast as they can without paying any attention to experience or aesthetics.. the other will NOT follow the most popular trend out there just because they can.

Well i was just trying to show it takes no effort to fake a Samsung Galaxy S3 lol, if i were to really put effort into it, it would look real

Okay, good. I was really hoping you had only spent like 5 seconds on it.

kretz7

No, my attempt was way better.
